Amazing the things we think we need! My first truck was an 85 Chevy swb silverado package. It had all the "bells and whistles" meaning A/C, power windows, locks and a cassette deck!

My first truck was a 1969 Chevy, crank windows, 2/60 a/c and armstrong steering with a 'heater' you could call it I guess. I wore out credit cards scraping the frost inside.

My car has a cassette deck and cd! lol! Bought it brand new in 1999, full load Chrysler LHS.

It's not that we 'need' it, we want it. If I wanted a stripped down plain jane pos I would buy another chev 2wd with crank mirrors.

I bought a top end Ford because I wanted it as is. Again, I made the mistake of assuming the dvd would play, etc like the year before.

Just because a new truck is "stripped down" doesn't mean it is a POS buddy.
Some of us actually use a truck for work and not for grocery getting and trying to impress people with our $40,000+ status symbol.

WOW get a grip 'buddy', you are taking FORD OWNERSHIP far too personally. You own A ford, not the company.

Some of us have more than 1 truck, this cute little eco-boost just happens to be the grocery getter.

I couldn't gaff about what anyone thinks of my 'status symbol' (LOLOL HAHA).
Ohhhhh..... waitaminute.....- you got me. You are fishing, and I took the line.

I haven't been trolled in a while, you get the yearly special olympics participaction award.

How did I get hosed? They giving $15,000 off?


Or is 50k too much for a truck? I considered getting a g-wagon but this truck seemed a little more sensible. I can always use it for work if I dont want to drive my F250.

Get a life??? Don't get mad because your truck will depreciate a lot worse than my stripped down POS. I guess you just don't like people who are wiser with their money.
This is my last post in this thread.

Do I seem mad? Do I care? Before you posted should have been your last post, but just keep making yourself look stupid, bridge dweller. You have ZERO information on my money, and how I spend it. Now crawl back in your hole.

HAHA you think a plain Jane will hold value better than loaded? LOL Dilusional!
